“This
book is absolutely fantastic! Even knowing that it's fiction, you may
be under the impression ' Oh-No, not more of Carey's crap ' But wait!
you are running a mile away from a fantastic, well written and most of
all correct fictional book on the Kelly gang”

But,

Also,
as a guide, we have placed a rating, of a possible five Joe helmet's,
if the book receives five Joe Helmet's, it's gospel, if it receives
one helmet, it's more than likely a shocker! Enjoy.

This
book is absolutely fantastic! Even knowing that it's fiction,
you may be under the impression ' Oh-No, not more of Carey's
crap ' But wait! you are running a mile away from a fantastic,
well written and most of all correct fictional book on the
Kelly gang. The main character is a young orphan named Garrett,
and he meet's Ned and Joe, in Beechworth he was 15.
"Ned Kelly rode into Beechworth, one, cold clear Saturday and
changed my life, I was 15 then " Soon, Garrett finds himself one
of the most active Kelly sympathizers, and is with the gang
right up until the bitter end at Glenrowan.

that! incoming criticism! I hate to flog the dead horse, but
personally I hate this book, it's is terrible. For one aspect,
is the title, The TRUE History, come on! when
it's nothing but a load of FICTION. Secondly,
Carey claims that he got his inspiration, from Joe and Ned's
Jerilderie
Letter, can I ask one question? In the name of
god, where in Joe and Ned's writing does it say that: Dan
and Steve were homosexual with each other, and wore women's
clothes.Also,
Ned's father was a cross dresser? Where in the Jerilderie
letter
do you get a glimpse of these events? I wouldn't use this book,
well, basically for anything. Enough said!....

Kelly country, based on the ultimate dream any Kelly Gang
sympathizer could have wished for-The republican of North
East Victoria, to have succeeded. This book began as it ended-Terrible.
I must admit it was more intriguing than the above oblivion
of a book. I can't regret the price I paid for a signed version,
$8. No complaints here!

"
The normally peaceful village of Milltown, is in the grips
of a Bushranger epidemic, and no business is safe " This
is the first line on the blurb of Ned Kelly's helmet. Four
children, have a assignment-bushranger month-pretend your
a bushranger. The Mc Googly gang, armed and dangerous, charge
to the Old Melbourne Gaol, to try to steal Ned's ( really
Dan's ) helmet. Eventually, they head back in time, to the
Last stand at Glenrowan. and win the assignment. All summed
up the book was very enjoyable, the author Stafford, threw
the police brutality during the siege into retrospect.

Black Snake:
The daring of Ned Kelly, is a must have if you are a Kelly
gang fanatic. It puts it's reader in a light that lets no
judging being known; you make your own decisions. It has
little 'Opinions' of people of the outbreak, for example, a
Fanny Shaw, who really was there during the Euroa Bank
hold-up, tells the reader how frightened she was. It has a
great section on Joe which is very accurate, and also points
out what a lot of books seem to miss is that Carole Wilkinson,
mentioned that Joe wrote Ned Kelly's famous letters. A good
read...
